How to Give an Agency Access to Your Shopify Store

Shopify lets agencies and freelancers work in your store as collaborators, without you sharing your password or paying for a staff account. Collaborator access is how an agency connects Google Ads tracking, Merchant Center, and other integrations to your store. Here's what your agency needs and where to find it.

What Your Agency Needs

• Your Shopify store URL: it usually looks like yourstorename.myshopify.com.
• Your collaborator request code: if your store requires one.

How to Find Your Shopify Store URL

1. Log in to your Shopify admin.
2. Click Settings in the bottom left corner.
3. Click Domains.
4. Find the address that ends in .myshopify.com and copy it.

How to Find Your Collaborator Request Code

1. In your Shopify admin, click Settings.
2. Click Users and permissions.
3. Scroll to the Collaborators section. If your store requires a code, you'll see it there.
4. Copy the code and send it to your agency along with your store URL.

What Happens Next

Your agency requests access from their Shopify Partner dashboard by entering your store URL, your collaborator code, and the specific permissions they need. You'll get an email and a notification in your Shopify admin to review and approve the request. You stay in control: you can change their permissions or remove access at any time.

Tips

• Only approve the permissions your agency actually needs for the work.
• Review your collaborators list from time to time and remove anyone you no longer work with.
